    Sure it's settling...but the bit of color makes all the difference!

    so there's that.

    Actually, I do prefer my posts with a bit of colour in them...

    So who am I to judge? :p

    That is the most racist and demeaning quote I have ever read.
    "If you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room."

    Gambling=a taxation on stupidity.

    Remember, you can walk anywhere, as long as you have the time.

    I don't think it is the most racist thing I have ever read but it does kind of reduce Obama's whole campaign down to "vote for him, he's the black guy".

    I agree. Why the FUCK does race matter. Let me ask this question to all the good "liberals". If Obama was white would you vote for him? If the answer is "no", then why did you? There really is not difference between Clinton's platform and Obama's.

    Ed is a racist. On the 6/17/92 show in Milan, Italy, he says in RITFW:

    "Got a 1,000 points of light, for the colored man"

    Ed thinks of African American folks as "colored."

    Can no one on here take a joke? Its not even racist...It would be racist to say I'm not voting for Obama because hes black.

    Consult any West Virgina Pit Members for how to be racist against Obama.

    This election is going to be an embarrassment.

    Whoever supports Obama will have to overly-explain why they are not just voting for him b/c he's black.

    Whoever supports McCain will have to overly-explain why they are voting for McCain isn't because they are racist.

    It's like wanting diversity, but not wanting to affect property values, all the while raising awareness of why "black" is wrong and "African American" is right for those wishing to go from non-racist to super non-racist. It's such a dilemma for white people.

    Yeah! Between deciding what's best for poor people and minorities white people have it so tough these days! Thank God for stuffwhitepeoplelike.com!

    I don't think Ed is a racist but he's a big lefty and these days it's clearly the mainstream left that can't seem to ignore skin color and make it a factor in just about everything they say and do.

    I'd like to disagree with this, but its hard to do. Of all the things Ed could have said, he chooses blackness as his focus. Sure, its a positive spin on the same, but seriously? That's a good reason to vote for someone? I am sure Ed has other reasons, not the least of which is hating Republicans, but come on ... Weak sauce, Ed.
